Now reading Blue Moon Promise by Colleen Coble

[A.]

I'm getting ready to read by Georgette Heyer as well as re-read .

[Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :)]

How is the Heyer one? It's on my to read list.

Also, is the other one a romance? Was it good?

[Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :)]

And what genre is the second one?

[A.]

I haven't started the Heyer one yet, I just got it a couple of hours ago from the library, but I'll let you know.

As for the other one, it is a romance and is very good. You should try it, it takes place in Regency England.

It's coming in the mail.But It's not coming for a week.I will get to Arabella as soon as I can Soph.:)

[Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :)]

It should be your next Heyer ;)

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

I want to read it... :)

[Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :)]

Do do!!

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

I will! ;D

[[deleted user]]

I've never heard of Georgette Heyer. Who is she? (Other than an author, duh.)

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

she writes in the style of Jane Austen; she's written a TON of books and she's known for her wit and comedy. :) she wrote regency romances (EXTREMELY clean)
.

[Maggie]

That's good, I hate books that are filled with nothing but intimacy scenes, like many of the Pride and Prejudice spin-offs are. You can have a perfectly good story without it.

[Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :)]

My sentiment exactly!!

I will be reading Miss Delacourt has her Day (sequel to Miss Delacourt speaks her Mind) and I can't wait as the first one was amazing!

I absolutely LOVED Arabella and recommend it ! Great story and very very funny!! Wonderful hero and heroine as well!

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

@Maggie: Ikr? the Jane Austen books were FINE- why did everybody have to go making them rotten??? Jane didn't ask for their help! ;P

OOOH SOPH!! you MUST tell me how it is!!!!! XD

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

2nd Miss Della I mean. ;)

[Aerykah]

[Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :)]

I will Alice!! And you tell me about the Austen one you are reading please!! :D

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

[Nicole D.]

I LOVED CITY OF ORPHANS! Avi is awesome; have you read Crispin or Beyond the western sea????? that last one is my fav of his EVER.

[Megan]

Yes, Avi is a great author! I really liked The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle by him. It was a really fun page-turner. Definitely worth another re-read if I'm in the mood for some adventure. I haven't read the first Crispin book yet, but it's next on my must-read list (which means I'll be reading that next after City of Orphans)!

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

OH YEA! I forgot Charlotte!! I LOVED that one too!! I love nautical fiction. ;)

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

I liked the first Crispin book best, the second one absolutely failed because...well....you still have to read it for the story but I'm warning you it's quite disappointing. :/ and the third one was good, but not as good as the first. ;D in ALL the series was very enjoyable!

[Aerykah]

Just started this one a few minutes ago

The Sound of Red Returning by Sue Duffy

[Carol]

After watching Campion's film Bright Star (2009), I had to get the biography John Keats by Walter Jackson Bate - only 780 pp!!

[Nicole D.]

I am reading because Arabella didn't come in the mail intil tomorrow and I have to read something.

[Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :)]

Is that good that one?

I LOVED the "Beyond the Western Sea" books! So many characters and plots and all of them connected without even knowing it!

"Perhaps they're after that key, too..." ;)

[Nicole]

I just started
I've been looking forward to reading this one, and after the Prologue & Chapter 1 I'm already intrigued!
